I think a lot of people are keeping him in their back pocket hoping he might be true to his words, just in case they somehow manage to completely sideline Trump. He's likeable enough but much like 2015 Trump, his track record is all over the place.
I do like him better than Desantis at this point.
Track record ? What record ? He has never held public office or been in public employ. So what has he "done" or said he would do that is all over the place ?
Trump's VP pick ?
Obviously he'll take Pence again.
